Banned Books of the Bible (II): The Book of Enoch

This strange book from the second century B.C.E. was likely written by a Jewish mystic conveying visions of the stories of Genesis 5-6, written centuries earlier. In the Book of Enoch we encounter ideas that had significant impact on early Christian theological development as evidenced in the writings of the New Testament. In today’s sermon, Father John explores the unique way that the Book of Enoch describes the origins and actions of evil in the world, and what we can learn from this as practical spiritual lessons for today.
